10 Years Later - The Underground Parking at the National Stadium will be Completed

After 10 years one of the underground parking lots to the Sofia Metro can be opened for use. This is the facility at the Vassil Levski Stadium, most of which has been in construction since May 2009, when this metro station was launched.
